Bound to the Multiverse Restaurant, I'm now the darling of my staff.

"When the Qi in the Dantian is abundant, the Du and Ren meridians work in unison. Guard against dangers and risks, and circulate it according to the meridians. The Qi circulates throughout the body, ensuring smooth flow and integration. When the Qi returns to the Dantian, the practice is complete and the method is clear."

On Lingyun Peak, Wen Nuan sat cross-legged in the pavilion, her eyes closed, her hands resting on her knees, and the clear, deep voice of her master reached her ears.

This is Wen Nuan cultivating under the guidance of Immortal Venerable Xuanxiao. At this moment, she is searching for spiritual energy according to her master's instructions.

After a while, feeling like she was about to fall asleep, Wen Nuan opened her eyes dejectedly, looking helpless.

"Master, this spiritual energy is invisible and intangible, how am I supposed to find it? And where is this dantian? And how does it circulate?"

As a modern person, she had never been exposed to any kind of cultivation, so asking her to sense spiritual energy was really asking too much of her.

Xuanxiao, "..."

As the youngest Tribulation Transcending stage cultivator in the entire cultivation world, Xuanxiao has been exceptionally talented since childhood and has never encountered any major hurdles in his cultivation journey.

In his view, cultivation was as simple as flowing clouds and running water, so these questions from his disciple... were somewhat difficult for him...

Because it was such a basic concept, even the Xuanxiao Immortal Venerable, who was taking on his first disciple, didn't know how to explain it to him.

The master and apprentice stared at each other, speechless.

Xuanxiao remained expressionless, but was inwardly confused.

He read extensively and devoured countless classic texts, but none of them contained answers to these simple and easy-to-understand questions.

The usually composed and capable Xuanxiao Immortal Venerable was at a loss when he saw his only personal disciple.

"Let me teach you how spiritual energy works first."

With its distinct joints and warm, jade-like hand, Wen Nuan felt a surge of energy within her body, flowing along a certain path.

"Remember the trajectory of spiritual energy; its final resting place is the dantian."

Warmth quickly closed her eyes and carefully felt it.

So this is what it feels like to have spiritual energy lingering in your body?

The feeling at that moment was so mysterious that she couldn't describe it.

But in that instant, Wen Nuan suddenly felt that she had become sharp-eared and sharp-eyed, and could even clearly hear the sound of dew dripping from the petals.

This feeling made her feel very comfortable, and in a daze, Wen Nuan seemed to hear the breathing of the surrounding plants...

Lingyun Peak is one of the thirty-two peaks of the Qingyun Sword Sect, and it is also the highest peak in the Qingyun Sword Sect besides the main peak, reaching a height of a thousand feet.

Moreover, the scenery on Lingyun Peak is the best among the sect's thirty-two peaks.

The mountaintop is adorned with swaying green trees and swirling clouds and mist. In addition, Xuanxiao has planted many spiritual plants and herbs on the mountaintop in his spare time, many of which are rare and precious varieties rarely seen in the cultivation world.

However, the rarer the variety, the more difficult it is to cultivate. Therefore, most of these spiritual plants and herbs have only sprouted a few small seedlings.

but now……

Xuanxiao's usually calm and composed eyes showed surprise, but when his gaze fell on his disciple with his eyes closed, it turned into shock.

At this moment, the spiritual energy overflowing from the top of Lingyun Peak surrounds the pavilion where they are.

Xuanxiao dared to say that he had never seen such rich spiritual energy since he began cultivating. The spiritual energy, which was originally invisible and intangible, was now almost materialized and visible to the naked eye, let alone felt.

What surprised him even more was the scenery around him at that moment, where all the plants began to grow wildly.

The ancient tree, which was already lush and leafy, grew into a towering tree in an instant, and the entire pavilion was shrouded in its shade.

Originally just seedlings that would take a hundred years to grow, these spiritual plants and herbs grew rapidly under the nourishment of rich spiritual energy, blossoming and bearing fruit, reaching maturity in an instant.

Then, green dots of light emerged from these plants, just like fireflies.

They danced and swayed in the air, gathering more and more, beginning to converge towards the warmth, vying to enter her body.

Xuanxiao watched this scene for a long time before his expression returned from shock to calm.

"So...this is the root of the Spirit Tree of Life..."

Warmth absorbs spiritual energy from all things on earth, and then uses this spiritual energy to nourish all things. In turn, all things, after feeling her gift of spiritual energy, give back their own essence to her.

The cycle repeats itself endlessly, life goes on and on.

No wonder... those who possess this spiritual root are called guardians of the world.

The vibrant life force contained within this spiritual energy was something he had never seen before in his life.

At this moment, the area around Wen Nuan seemed to be a spirit-gathering array.

And she was at the center of the formation, absorbing all the surrounding spiritual energy into her body.

If it were anyone else, Xuanxiao would worry that the person was about to explode and die.

But if this person were his apprentice...

Xuanxiao looked at Wen Nuan's rosy complexion and relaxed expression, and even saw a hint of enjoyment in her eyes. He knew that his worries were unnecessary.

But soon, Xuanxiao realized he had put his mind at ease too soon.

Because, right under his nose, his disciple's cultivation level began to rise rapidly.

For beginners, there are thirteen levels in the Qi Refining stage alone, and each subsequent realm is divided into initial, intermediate, late, and Great Perfection stages.

Those with average talent usually need to spend several years to achieve Foundation Establishment.

Compared to the subsequent leaps in understanding, this beginning is the most difficult. Some people even get stuck at that dividing line for their entire lives, unable to make any progress.

Even those with exceptional talent often need several months to develop the skills.

Even he, though hailed as the most talented cultivator in the cultivation world, spent half a month successfully establishing his foundation.

But the warmth at this moment...

Xuanxiao sensed the fluctuations of spiritual energy emanating from his disciple.

Qi Refining Level 1, Level 2, Level 3... Level 11, Level 12, Level 13... and then silently leaping up to Foundation Establishment, without any pause in between.

What many people struggle to overcome in their lifetime becomes like a fierce mountain tyrant instantly transforming into a docile little rabbit in the face of warmth.

Xuanxiao originally thought that was the end of it, but little did he know that his formidable disciple was not finished yet.

After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, he continued to climb higher, quickly progressing from the early Foundation Establishment stage to the middle Foundation Establishment stage, and then to the late Foundation Establishment stage...

Xuanxiao frowned, his expression serious. He formed a hand seal and directly created a barrier around Wen Nuan, completely isolating her from the spiritual energy.

But the green dots seemed unwilling to give up, each one desperately trying to squeeze into the barrier, and soon the entire transparent barrier was covered with a layer of green, so that even the warm figure inside could not be seen.

“You’re not helping her by doing this. Continuous cross-border travel makes her unstable and will only harm her.”

The principle is simple: spiritual practice is like building a house; the taller the house, the more important its foundation.

If the foundation is unstable from the beginning, no matter how tall you build your house, it's nothing but a castle in the air, and it will collapse sooner or later.

Especially Wen Nuan, who previously didn't even know how to cultivate, has now crossed borders one after another.

She is now like a child with a treasure trove but no key, only able to stare at the treasure trove in a daze, unable to truly possess it.

As if they understood what Xuanxiao said, the green light spots suddenly slowed down and then began to drift back slowly.

The barrier, which had been covered by green spheres, finally began to slowly recover, gradually revealing a warm figure sitting in meditation with eyes closed inside.

Xuanxiao watched warily as all the green lights disappeared, and the surrounding spiritual energy gradually dissipated, returning to calm before dispelling the barrier around Wen Nuan.

At this moment, the realm of warmth remained stable at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment.

Leaping across two major realms in a single day...

Throughout the entire history of the cultivation world, there has never been anything this terrifying...

Only now did Xuanxiao realize what an extraordinary disciple he had just taken in...

People secretly called him a pervert, but he never felt that way and didn't think he was anything special.

But at this moment... Xuanxiao realized what true perversion really meant...
